Other than the headlights which will be installed after painting, construction of the EP-3 body is complete almost complete.  :|  I nearly forgot about the corner marker lamps.  :facepalm:  So painting is on hold until they are fabricated.  :(

I finally finished off the last of my N Scale Kits HD Flatcars. I finished another QTTX flat as well as the 12 axle KRL 300304. Now I need to build the loads.

A few weeks ago, I saw one similar to this with a transformer load. Wish I would have got a picture since it was a unique load for the area.

A few new CR MoW trucks to the fleet. These still need equipment, mirrors and windows.

Progress on CGW 1000. I filled the space in the roof with some tungsten epoxy, in addition to a brass bar in the space above the motor and factory weights.  I don't know what it weighs, but it's a lot, probably on par with older Kato F units.

Great looking Conrail MOW trucks @daniel_leavitt2000 .  What decals did you use for the door logos?  Matt Snell’s CR MOW decals from ten years ago?  CMR Products (CR patch out set)?  How about the paint?  Thanks.  Jeff

I took the bait, too.  Much ado about nothing, I'd suggest.

Excellent work Bryan; always enjoy seeing this type of work in N Scale even if I am not familiar with the prototype.

And here I thought it had something to do with @Ed Kapuscinski ... no such luck. Kinda lame, actually.

I had the decals custom made years ago in 12, 18, and 24" sizes. I'm almost out of them. I have both Snell's and CMR decal sets. I like  Snell's a bit better. I wish they were still available.

My yellow might be a bit off from the prototype. It's hard to tell from photos. I use Polly Scale RBOX yellow which seems to be a good base, then use brown and gray chalks to weather.
